Amazon Halo's principal medical officer Dr Maulik Majmudar said they are using Amazon's deep expertise in artificial intelligence and machine learning to offer customers a new experience in wellness.The device which is priced at US$65, can among others discern intensity of activity, distinguish walking from running, and reliably assess a wearer's level of body fat.
Its Tone feature also helps analyse "the positivity and energy" in someone's voice to assess how happy, sad, tired or excited they sound.
